TL;DR

Chippewa Valley Orthopedics and Sports Medicine has filed a lawsuit against HSHS, seeking an injunction to keep Sacred Heart and St. Joseph’s hospitals in Eau Claire and Chippewa Falls, Wisconsin open until at least July 21, 2024, three months past the announced closure date of April 21, 2024. CVOSM alleges that HSHS did not provide ample notice of the closure and is prematurely shutting down services, causing harm to patients and interfering with healthcare providers' ability to serve the community.
